The Holy Fire will expose all unrighteousness for all men to behold. This exposure will cause many believers to repent of their lukewarmness as they see the lies they have allowed to persist around them.
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 1:
18 For God in heaven unveils his holy anger breaking forth against every form of sin, both toward ungodliness that lives in hearts and evil actions. For the wickedness of humanity deliberately smothers the Truth and keeps people from acknowledging the Truth about God. 19 In reality, the Truth of God is known instinctively, for God has embedded this knowledge inside every human heart.
20 Opposition to Truth cannot be excused on the basis of ignorance, because from the creation of the world, the invisible qualities of God’s nature have been made visible, such as His Eternal power and transcendence. He has made his wonderful attributes easily perceived, for seeing the visible makes us understand the invisible. So then, this leaves everyone without excuse.
There is no such thing as plausible deniability. It is actually an excuse to claim ignorance when you are well aware of man’s intent. Ignorance is no excuse as is made clear in this passage. We do our children a disservice when we fail to bring God’s easily perceived attributes to their attention. The sun, moon, planets, and stars all declare HIS Glory!
21Throughout human history the fingerprints of God were upon them, yet they refused to honor Him as God or even be thankful for His kindness. Instead, they entertained corrupt and foolish thoughts about what God was like. This left them with nothing but misguided hearts, steeped in moral darkness. 22Although claiming to be wise, they were in fact shallow fools. 23For only a fool would trade the unfading splendor of the immortal God to worship the fading image of other humans, idols made to look like people, animals, birds, and even creeping reptiles!
When you glorify humans, idols, animals, birds, etc. (the temporary), you effectively reduce the Glory that FATHER deserves in your life. You have esteemed HIM less and esteemed the created more. Each of us must ask what is being held in high esteem in our hearts. It is crucial to repent of this now.
24This is why God lifted off His restraining hand and let them have full expression of their sinful and shameful desires. They were given over to moral depravity, dishonoring their bodies by sexual perversion among themselves—25all because they traded the Truth of God for a lie. They worshiped and served the things God made rather than the God Who made all things—glory and praises to Him forever and ever! Amen!
Why would anyone trade a Truth for a lie unless they are not in their right mind? Jesus exposed the lies and we are called to do the same. Can we afford to do otherwise? If judgment is coming soon, it is critical to spread the Good News and not be silent any longer.
26-27 For this reason God gave them over to their own disgraceful and vile passions. Enflamed with lust for one another, men and women ignored the natural order and exchanged normal sexual relations for homosexuality. Women engaged in lesbian conduct, and men committed shameful acts with men, receiving in themselves the due penalty for their deviation.
28And because they thought it was worthless to embrace the true knowledge of God, God gave them over to a worthless mind-set, to break all rules of proper conduct.
29Their sinful lives became full of every kind of evil, wicked schemes, greed, and cruelty. Their hearts overflowed with jealous cravings, and with conflict and strife, which drove them into hateful arguments and murder. They are deceitful liars full of hostility. They are gossips 30who love to spread malicious slander. With inflated egos they hurl hateful insults at God, yet they are nothing more than arrogant boasters. They are rebels against their parents and totally immoral.
31They are senseless, faithless, ruthless, heartless, and completely merciless. 32Although they are fully aware of God’s laws and proper order, and knowing that those who do all of these things deserve to die, yet they still go headlong into darkness, encouraging others to do the same and applauding them when they do!
The Holy Spirit has totally exposed the mindsets of the disgraceful and vile. Those who have pursued such perversities mentioned above are actively attempting to indoctrinate our kids with their perversities. We must stand up and no longer be passive in these areas. Is your local library participating in this infiltration?
Have you ever noticed how Christians are about the only ones that can be targeted concerning their expressed views of the unrighteous? The ungodly call it hate when a believer simply quotes Scripture similar to the above verses yet they can get away with their parades, attempts to sway kids, attempting to change the definitions of male and female on bathroom signs, birth certificates, etc. Who hates who? We are seeing the battle lines drawn now and the Remnant will not tolerate such sin to be left unchecked. Now is the time to expose the lies promoted by the ungodly and it can only be done by being totally led by The Holy Spirit. He will pick our battles so we need not take any action apart from His specific direction. Jesus is our best Example.
